Hello everyone. I have a Youtube account and recently I noticed that somebody hacked into it and ruined my "subscription ajax". I am desperate to fix this problem and I need your help. People are able to subscribe to me, but when I try to subscribe back to them, the Javascript says "disabled" and it will not allow me to subscribe. I was looking around online and found this website about how to hack accounts with a Javascript code and I think that this is what has been done to my account :

Does anyone know how to undo or fix this problem? There is no solution that I found online and I am hoping that you guys might have a Javascript code to fix this. Thanks in advance!! :)

I don't think I need to remind anyone not to click that - reported.

What are you talking about? I am just coming here for help. I cannot believe that you would report it when I am just trying to show people what has been done to my account. All I am looking for is some help to fix this. Thanks anyway.

No problem. Your post reminds many here of spammers, but since you seem legit, please carry on. (Y)

I just made another post in the General Discussions, but I took the link information out of there so that it will not upset people and give them the wrong impression. I am just trying to get this fixed and I wanted to give people the appropriate information to so that they can know all the details.Thanks again!! :)

Yeah, double posting is not allowed on Neowin. I closed the thread and placed a link to this discussion. Please keep that in mind.

Thanks.

I checked the javascript code you posted. Doubt that's your problem, as that javascript, while being highly questionable as to it's possible effectiveness (Really...? Doesn't youtube check your login infos before you try to spoof people unsubscribing!?), this doesn't seem to be your problem.

If they can subscribe to you and you can't, giving an error about javascript, I can see one of two things:

1- You either really have javascript disabled in your browser

2- You use some kind of javascript blocker addon such as that Firefox addon I just can't remember off the top of my head

Hi!! Thank you very much for taking the time to help me. I appreciate you checking out that code and giving me your feedback on what the issue could be. I will look on my browser to see if my Javascript is disabled and I will check to see if I have some kind of Javascript blocker. Thanks so much again for your help. Have a great day!! :)

Could just be a hiccup. Have you notified Youtube about it?

Hi!! Thanks for your response. Yes, I did try to notify Youtube about it, but they only have the "Report a Bug" feature and I sent multiple messages about the issue with no response. I have heard that they are not good with customer service.

@Marshall - Rebooting and Resetting are two very different things, the latter would lead to a complete flush/reset of his router, which means he'd lose his network settings, etc. It would be restored to the condition it came in. I'd stick to a simple reboot.

@OP - Have you tried asking someone else to log in from your ID from another computer to see if it works? To me the problems seem to be with your computer and not your account. I'd do that if I were you, so atleast you can narrow down on the problem.

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      The concern of this article is not getting "hacked". No one is taking over my Google account and anyone that was is far away from self-hosting their passwords. It was about your big tech account of choice deciding to reduce features or getting out of the password manager business altogether. Bitwarden (or say Proton) is professional security company offering opensource solutions. They are going no where and one can easily download or export their passwords to another password manager service regardless. They again also offer self-hosted option. I doubt many people were sold on this solution based on the write up. The author had a number of warnings and caveats themselves. A local, self-managed solution is not for 99% of users.
    • AMD confirms 26.6.2 FSR driver breaks on many Windows PCs

      By WaltC · Posted

      I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By WaltC · Posted

      AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
